The film tells the tragic story of Camille, a young girl with a natural interest in sculpture and extraordinary talent, who fell into an impossible love and was squeezed by love because of her fate.
Adjani performs the film's heroine, Camille, from her youthful 17-year-old to 48-year-old insane in a heartwarming and heartbreaking manner.
Camille's love for Rodin is wholehearted, her emotions, her talents, her mind, her body are all dedicated to Rodin. And Rodin just used Camille's inspiration for his own use, he had no love or pity for Camille.
Camille became pregnant with Rodin's child after being Rodin's lover for 15 years. Camille hopes to have a stable family, but Rodin slyly evades when confronted by Camille. Camille realizes that Rodin will not leave his long-term partner Rose to marry him, he just wants his love, but does not want to get married.
If the love between Rodin and Camille once again proved the master's brilliant achievements and extraordinary charm, then this relationship has truly sacrificed Camille's artistic life and made her love with Rodin for a long time. , and no work of his own has been published at all.
Once, Camille was Rodin's muse, but when she was sad because she couldn't get her lover's complete love, the goddess became a grudge, a kiss became a curse, and the source of inspiration became a stumbling block... …
Camille said to Rodin: "You have an idyllic dream, but we are actually ghosts wandering in the cemetery." At this moment, a series of entanglements have made the once affectionate sculptor unbearable. , had to wave goodbye to his lover.
Camille, who left Rodin, re-engaged in his own sculptural creation. In "The Age of Maturity", a statue of one man and two women created by her, the girl kneels on the ground, and the man turns and leaves under the pull of the old woman.
Unfortunately, the hard work did not give Camille the fame and fortune she had always sought. No matter how brilliant ideas and ideas, through the tinted glasses of the world, they have also become cheap and insignificant decorations.
People talked about her beauty, good figure, and scandal with Rodin, but never took her work seriously.
She has no national orders, no private orders, and even the occasional acclaim at fairs doesn't pay for stone and models.
What is even more tragic is that the industry regards her as an accessory of Rodin, a dispensable butterfly on the shoulders of giants. Rodin's plagiarism... This undoubtedly pushed the poor and sick Camille to the brink of collapse.
However, Rodin, who was a former mentor and lover, seemed indifferent to Camille's situation. Although he also provided help to Camille through money or orders, he never came forward to clarify the rumors of plagiarism, and even sneered at her works. .
"You are a third-rate sculptor," Rodin said to Camille, "all your ideas come from me, without yourself..."
The tight economy, as well as the long-term neglect and exclusion, have bent Camille's back.
A generation of talented sculptors finally fell into a dark and chaotic world, becoming a slave to madness and delusion, and even when Paul returned to France, he saw his haggard, tired, neurotic sister and exclaimed that she had become another person.
After the madness, Camille hated Rodin desperately. In her opinion, Rodin was her worst enemy, torturing her spirit, copying her ideas, and ruining her reputation...
She ran to Rodin's house angrily and smashed his doors and windows with stones. Everyone heard a woman's sad roar: "Rodin, get out of your kennel, what the hell do I love you!"
Camille said to Rodin: "Meeting you is the greatest misfortune in my life." Perhaps, being born in an era when a woman cannot walk side by side with a man is her greatest sorrow.
A talented girl, who has fallen into the shadow of the master all her life, goes crazy alone under the double blow of love and reality.
